That’s according to KETK. Along with his endorsement, Eltife officially joined Tyler Proud, an organization Eltife says is dedicated to bringing people together to improve Tyler ISD. “I am excited to be a member of Tyler Proud and appreciate the work the organization is doing to promote public education and help with passage of the May TISD bond proposal,” Eltife stated.

“We are thrilled to have Senator Eltife on our team,” Tyler Proud President Mark Randall said. “He is a dedicated public servant who works tirelessly for what is best for our community. We appreciate all that he does on our behalf in Austin, and we are especially proud that he stays involved on important local issues like this school bond.”

The bond issue will be decided in the election on May 11. Opponents are spearheaded by the “No More Excuses, Tyler ISD” group. That organization says Tyler ISD needs to focus on discipline and academics, not new facilities.
